MEGALI AMMOS
Megali Ammos is situated a bit outside the city in the street leading to Koukounaries. Megali Ammos & Vassilia Beaches form an almost 2 kilometre long strip of beach that starts from town and ends at the corner of Vassilia. You can reach this beach on foot, by car or by bus. Behind the road, the land slopes fairly steeply up to the hills of Skiathos and thus these beaches are protected from the strong north wind and the prevailing north-east breeze blows across the bay at right angles to the beach and helps to keep things cool in the summer. You can enjoy the crystal clear waters and the food in its very nice tavernas or the picturesque "ouzeri" (small tavernas serving ouzo and snacks). If you wish, you can stay in the hotels or the hospitable hostels situated there.
